Regal Princess

12 Night Grand Mediterranean (Barcelona To Venice)

Sail date: September 11, 2014

Ship: Regal Princess

Cabin type: Balcony

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 9 years ago

Review summary

As soon as we got on the ship we were bombarded with staff selling beverage packages and selling time in the spa treatments. The tours were overpriced and overcrowded. Woul not recommend anyone to do this cruise to see Europe. Its more to stay on the ship. We have cruised 4 times now and we love it, even with princess in Alaska but wont use princess again. Overpriced....
